Try Ryan Crotty, Saders… at the base of the righthand post… good try!
they actually deserve a try. Lets see what TMO says. The pressure on the Lions has been huge.
Lions 15 / 10 Crusaders
This one going to the wire….eish! Julle moet drink manne! HKGK
Come on Lions… now keep in the Saders half…
Jaco Kriel is a monster… he should be the Bokke starting loosie in his position, every day of the week!
Lions scrum… it goes down… reset scrum.
It is well inside the Saders 22.
disappointing crowd for this game. I mean this is a great game of rugby between two great teams, in a quarter final noggal. Are the Lions supporters feeling the pinch or what?
Big Lions scrum, penalty against the Saders loosehead prop… in on the angle.
Jantjies pops the ball into the corner for a 5m lineout…
Tryyyyyy Malcolm Marx, Lions!!
Handbags!
what a great try. Luckily Craig was on the spot to witness the grounding. Phew.

@ Tassies:
Best I tell her most of it went into the oxtail pootjie I’m cooking behind me. I’ll leave some red wine stains around the pot. We learn these tricks with experience. What I can’t disguise so well is the babbalas in the morning. 😯

108 @ Tassies:
Hopefully the Stormers win. Then you will have a reason to stay drunk. No babalad then.
@ grootblousmile:
GB I can’t express properly how much I’m enjoying this game. Great rugby. Proper quarter final contest as one can reasonably expect. Could go either way but our team has its nose in front. The last game was a pathetic pole opposite of the kind of quality expected of a QF. The Sharks need to purge. Soon. and BIG.
@ Scrumdown:
Lions not in the clear yet, I fear….need to keep up the pressure and Jantjies must nail the penalties.
2nd Half ON!
@ Scrumdown:
Happily take that trade-off SD.
An ear-bend is a small price to pay.
That said, the Stormers are not the quality side the Lions are. So it would be unexpected if I’m to be totally honest.
@ Tassies:
This is NZ vs Bokke….
@ Pietman:
nope. Keep drinking that poison Piet. you might need it. 😈
Lions penalty… not staying on their feet at the ruck.
that handwork by the C is quite brilliant.
Faf de Klerk is such a terrier…
Lions seem quite at ease with their systems and ability to play them.
